So much for Shechem the son.

Now for Hamor the Father, I have one fault to note,1 he is ready to embrace a religious adjunct, not for religion sake but for some by end, even that he may get such a wife for his son as he desireth. He embraceth the religion for the woman's sake, not the woman for the religions sake. Father and Son concur in this fault.

A common fault it is, religion is made of the by, it serveth some other Mistress. It is a stalking horse for policy on both sides. Wickedly do Jacobs sons seem to stand on religion for their secret ends, and it was not well done of them to take a religion up for mere private ends: but such is the custom of the men of this world, they can embrace any ordinance for their profit and any religion. O look that you be entire in embracing Gods Ordinance and Gods Truth, take heed that sinister ends do not mar and destroy your seeming religiousness, and make that you shall seem to God not the better men but the worse Hypocrites.
